Chapitre 143: 143. Isla awakes....

"it's already past twelve, and I still can't get through to Isla..." Jerry wondered, going up and down the house. "is he making her work overnight again? I mean he was the one who took her to the hospital, so he knows she's not too strong yet. Shouldn't he send her home early today?"

He fumed, as he'd concluded that the one keeping her was none other than her evil boss.
